Good thing I hate fish and/or sea food of all kinds =oO


Boo! I love them, but I hate the bones and other hard parts. So no sushis for you!

Hmm, The Michael BAY?

I've seen one other, and it was equally bad with regards to the camera work. Just because he's done it before, doesn't make it ok
The rants are fine, don't get me wrong. But he could've done without the camera theatrics. >> ^notarobot:

Oh camera man, that isn't how you're supposed to move a camera. You're being silly, camera man.

Methinks you are unfamiliar with the rants of Rick Mercer, no?

IF Romney is elected? What happened to ROMNEY LANDSLIDE?

I think you may be a RINO in disguise.>> ^quantumushroom:

The question about FEMA is moot.
Little to nothing ever gets cut in these federal bureaucracies, any cuts are more like a single theatrical scratch. It doesn't matter which side is in charge.
The federal mafia grows every goddamned year whether it needs to or not. It's mandated.
We can argue all night about FEMA, which is just the Post Office with a life preserver, Band-Aid and bottle of water, it won't make a whit of difference.
Here's some other ways your tax dollars are being spent:
$2.6 Million Spent To Train Chinese Prostitutes To Drink Responsibly
$1,529,220 for an Appalachian Fruit Lab.
$742,764 for olive fruit fly research. ($211,509 of this amount was to be spent in Paris, France)
$172,782 for the National Wild Turkey Federation in Edgefield, S.C.
$1,128,000 for Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Alaska Eagle River for an at-risk youth mentoring program.
$50,000,000 for REAL ID grants. Got to be sure to track and trace those unruly American citizens!
$123,050 for a Mother's Day Shrine in Grafton, West Virginia (population 5,489, with a land area of 3.8 square miles)

Revolution is coming, now it's only a question of when...less than 10 years if Romney is elected, less than 4 if the other guy squeaks in.

Anybody else make a mental jump to Wayne's World when watching this? "The original ending sucked, lets do the mega-happy ending"...

I think I'd have to swing against what seems to be the general consensus here and say I prefer the original theatrical ending to this one, but both have merits. To each his own, and it is cool to see both variations.

@EvilDeathBee "reaching" ain't there yet. Still looks like a cartoon to me (probably bc I play too many games). And nomatter how good it gets, it will always look like the actors are talking to/interacting with empty air. Say what you will about animatronics and puppets but meeting a puppet's eyes is never a problem for actors.

Completely disagree. Did you seriously think Prometheus looked "cartoony"? Also, the CGI Yoda in the Blu-Ray Episode 1 was so much better than the rubbish puppet from the theatrical release (regardless of how shit the film is). No matter how good a puppet or animatronic is, it will always be limited in what it can do and especially how it animates.
And if and actor has trouble meeting the eyes of a digital character, that's poor setup, poor direction, poor editing and even poor acting. As I said, it's knowing when to use CGI and when to use puppets/animatronics/models. All can be blended to work well together, depends on the shot.

Ok, so the Yoda puppet was pretty shit, but I think I still prefer it to the CG one. Whether something is believable seems pretty binary to me. Its not as if either version really does a good job of hiding the man behind the curtain. Some CG I am totally fooled by. Backdrops, a lot of special effects but when it comes to something organic, something thats going to be the focus of the camera CG never really holds up. I've seen tech demos of CG faces, and tbh, I can't really tell the difference. I think the problem often is blending this CG in with the rest of the scene. Our brains seem very good at detecting inconsistency in lighting etc, too often CG elements really seem painted on top and it spoils the illusion. A lot of animatronic stuff matches CG in terms of its animation, but because its actually in the scene it never jumps out at you.

But hey, maybe one day our films will be made entirely in front of bluescreens. Pehraps the performers won't even have to wear makeup or costume, it'll all be superimposed on afterwards. For the moment I still think animatronics has the edge in realism.

@Sarzy: I think we're going to have to fight! Absolutely no interest!


Really? Even after watching this trailer, and the previous two teasers?

This is the man who directed stuff like Magnolia, Boogie Nights, and There Will Be Blood. Zero interest? Really? Then put up your dukes, sir.

Well I guess we'll have to have a punch-up Sarzy Not that this doesn't look amazing, but I'm more excited about Django: Unchained and The Hobbit!

COME AT ME BRO.


With religion as a tag, you're lucky I'm viewing the trailer.

When the teasers first came out, I heard it was. A quick search just now resulted in this.>> ^Enzoblue:

So is this the story of L Ron Hubbard? Confused.
